Model Boats Return to Broomfield Park!

Great to see the boating pond back in use!

After  completion of the renovation to the historic boating pond, the model boats are back on the water in Broomfield Park! 


Originally created in 1903, the pond has been a cherished feature of the park for over a century. 

The Broomfield Model Boat Club has been a vibrant part of our community for many years, bringing enthusiasts together to share their passion for model boating. 
Pictured with the model cruise ship is Paul, models. Also expect lots more boats at Palmers Green festival on 7th September. 

Come down on Sunday mornings, enjoy the view, and watch these miniature marvels glide across the water.
